Fighting amongst ourselves

If you haven't noticed, we are in a battle. If you watch the media and the things going on around us, it would appear that we are in a battle against each other, which is unfortunate and the wrong fight. We, Christians, are in a battle against a common enemy - satan.

Christians seem to fight each other over everything. I have seen churches have major rifts and eventual splits over things such as carpet color. It ought not to be. We all know that satan seeks to destroy and devour and we are seemingly giving in to his schemes each and every day in each and every way. We have got to notice that he is trying to destroy, deter, and defeat GOD'S people from doing His work.

Today's word is Romans 12:18, NKJV, which reads, "If it is possible, as much as depends on you, live peaceably with all men."

Now, we are not talking about compromise and accepting sin. No, we are to tell others what the Bible says about sin and the fact that we have all sinned and fallen short of the glory of GOD, and that sin separates us from GOD. So, no, we aren't compromising. BUT, we are talking about agreeing on the core issues and stop fighting over all the things that seem to be common sense and common courtesy and decency.

Let us all come together and do the work that GOD has called us to do. And, that is not to promote ourselves or our cause or our mission. We are called to work together to spread and share the Gospel of JESUS CHRIST to the world. And, we can't do that if we are fighting amongst ourselves.  

Be Blessed,
